Objective: To retrospectively compare the efficacy of Sacubitril/Valsartan and Benazepril in the treatment of heart failure in patients following acute myocardial infarction.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of clinical data was conducted for 103 patients with heart failure following acute myocardial infarction admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to January 2024. All patients met complete inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Introduction: Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) guidelines recommend 'four pillars' of medical therapy and device therapy if left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) remains ≤35% after 3 months optimum medical therapy.We conducted the first study to examine the effects of optimisation to contemporary medical therapy on cardiac reverse remodelling, as demonstrated by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR).We hypothesised a proportion of patients would undergo beneficial remodelling and LVEF improvement above the threshold for complex device prescription after 6 months.

Background: Recent trial data refute concerns about neurocognitive off-target effects of neprilysin inhibition with sacubitril and suggest benefit in patients with heart failure and ejection fraction >40%. We hypothesized that sacubitril/valsartan is associated with improved cognitive outcomes in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare 3-year cognitive outcomes in patients with HFrEF who receive sacubitril/valsartan vs angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs).
Objective: To investigate the effects of sacubitril valsartan sodium combined with levosimendan on improving cardiac and renal functions in patients with CRS.
Methods: 90 patients with the cardiorenal syndrome who were hospitalized in our hospital from February 2020 to February 2022 were selected and divided into two groups, the control group, and the joint group, according to both single and double number methods, with 45 cases in each group. Patients who met the diagnostic criteria for CRS, were older than 18 years of age, had NYHA class II to IV, and had stage 1 or 2 chronic kidney disease were included in the study.

Aim: Sacubitril/valsartan treatment reduces mortality and hospitalizations in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction but has limited application in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on peak oxygen consumption (VO) in patients with non-obstructive HCM.
Methods And Results: This is a phase II, randomized, open-label multicentre study that enrolled adult patients with symptomatic non-obstructive HCM (New York Heart Association class I-III) who were randomly assigned (2:1) to receive sacubitril/valsartan (target dose 97/103 mg) or control for 16 weeks.
